What makes a expansion a real one? adding new content drastically (History,maps,weapons,sets,jobs,mounts,better graphics,races,reworking or changing old content etc) by paying an additional fee to the current monthly one. Like I understand you can't have everything you wish but Devs said that they are not going to introduce new races ( sadly)and imagine if they comes saying " no more new jobs", what's next? new expansion but no new zones?.
What's next is irrelevant. Deal with each issue separately. You can still have an expansion without a new job.

They would have to be creative with FFXIV's mostly static zones to have a new expansion without a new zone, but if they revamp the zones, then they can do that.

A new expansion requires new MSQ/story/quests/battle content. Everything else is cherry on top of that cake that is the expansion, but is not the cake itself.
